| Peace is a state of harmony, the absence of hostility. This term is applied to describe a cessation of or lapse in violent international conflict; in this international context, peace is the opposite of war. Peace can also describe a relationship between any parties characterized by respect, justice, and goodwill. |
More generally, peace can pertain to an individual
relative to her or his environment, as peaceful can
describe calm, serenity, and silence. This latter
understanding of peace can also pertain to an individual's
sense of himself or herself, as to be "at peace" with
one's self would indicate the same serenity, calm, and
equilibrium within oneself.

The traditional political definition of peace and the very word itself
originated among the ancient Romans who defined peace, pax, as
